If you just had a pet scan to see if you had lug cancer and you were really scared cause your dad died of it?

at your age in great pain and you just survived a serious car accident a bit ago where you missed death had you had been one second slower according to everyone and then you just found out an hour and a half ago that it was negative (except they said still a 10% change it could be cancer and they followup in three months with repeat pet scan), wouldn't you still be happy?

It seems like I am back to blah already...would this be a sign of depression (I have had atypical depression clinical for 20 years but..does this seem abnormal or blunted. I was very, very relieved and cried but it went away shortly after and I started thinking this was not normal to not be more smiling and happy over it. after all they were going to break my ribs and do major surgery if it were lung cancer.

Anyhow, I am relieved I am OK (then right after that I get an email (I think a scam) threatening to kill me if I don't give them a bunch of money (I posted a question about it before this) But what are all the

death related stuff of late about..just chance or some message..plus my mom recently died...it just seems odd to me and I just remembered that the cat scan from the wreck showed a small cyst in the kidney and I asked what does that mean and he said there is a chance it is cancer. I think since the pet scan covered me from "eyes to thighs?" as the technician said, that should cover the kidneys..you think a pulmonary specialist could read the kidney thing too right..OH god I better call her tomorrow and have her check that too as I do have a previous history of breast cancer (bit ok about 10 years)

first off I am very happy to hear you do not have lung cancer and do not have to suffer as you dad did. It is normal to be anxious about something so serious.

clinical depression does blunt one's emotions but atyical depression is usually responsive to what is happening..there is a good chance there was a big buildup of worry and stresss related to it and when you found out you were ok, after a big relif of joy and stress relief, it made you relax and go back to normal.

I wouldn't worry about it, the important thing is you are ok and can still get to enjoy life with one less thing to worry about.

after 20 years of suffering from this depression, it seems there is little you can do except try to be nice to yourself, bring good things in your life, and learn to accept that depression has you through no fault of your own.

Peace and blessings to you..

Sorry you are suffering from depression. I hope you can find the right meds for you to feel better. You seem to have excessive anxiety about medical conditions, too. You should consult a psychiatrist for your depression and anxiety.
I hope you do not smoke!! That is the major risk factor for lung cancer...
